The funeral on Monday for the well-known, well-regarded officer and decorated U.S. Army veteran drew thousands. Gliniewicz touched lives throughout the community, and the Grams family was no exception, said Brian Grams, director of the museum.

“Both of my girls knew him as ‘Joe Joe’,” Grams said of his 7- and 10-year-old daughters, Breanna and Bridgette. “They both looked up to him.

“We have snapshots of Joe carrying Breanna around on his shoulders … the girls just have a lot of positive memories about him.”

Grams said that as businesses and residents throughout the community look for ways to unite in the face of their shared tragedy, he decided that auctioning the rare car would be the museum’s way to help.

“It’s going to be dressed up as a tribute car to Joe,” Grams said. “Road Rage Designs is donating new graphics for the car.”

The Camaro police car that Volo will auction on eBay is one of only 13 built, Grams added. Originally, this high-performance Z/28 was available only to law enforcement.

“It is without a doubt an investment and highly collectible,” Grams said.

The no-reserve auction will start Friday, Sept. 11, and conclude Friday, Sept. 18.

A direct link to the auction will be available at volocars.com.

For the duration of the auction, anyone interested will be able to view the car in the courtyard outside of the museum entryway at 27582 Volo Village Road, Volo.

The car also is scheduled to be on display the evening of Wednesday, Sept. 9, at the McHenry Outdoor Theater during the theater’s benefit event for the Gliniewicz family.

The theater is showing “Superman.”

Admission will be a donation of the theater-goer’s choosing, with all proceeds earmarked for the Gliniewicz family, theater owner Scott Dehn said.

Additionally, the car will be displayed during the Round Lake Heights 22ndAnnual Festival parade at 11 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 12.

  1. That is a really nice, unique car.

    If the marketers put together a pdf or sprinkle the selling page with highlights his service, life, and a little about the case; and reach out to the Camero collector clubs; it will sell for more.

    Very thoughtful, generous, and caring.

  2. @ The Mrs… Cindy is looney and her last post is insane

    And you’ve only just discovered this?

    LOL!

    I don’t think Cindy suffers from mental illness, I’m pretty sure that she enjoys every moment of it.

  3. No one personally attacked any of you.

    Failing to see when you have been had, does not excuse knee-jerk name calling.

    I find it particularly telling that karma was the only one that tried to point out their point of view but kept it civil.

    New respect for their consistently biased point of view now.

    Do none of you understand how to pray for discernment and actually use your God given sense?

    Truly sad that you have all become so willing to let your government enslave you so easily.

  4. So Cindy you’re saying that this shooting is fake and made up by our government?

    I know people that knew the man personally, and a young man that he mentored.

    Yes I am personally attacking you for such a ridiculous post

  5. Thanks, Mrs. for calling me names and attacking my integrity.

    I have no idea what the actual situation is with regards to this man.

    What I am saying is order out of chaos.

    They used your emotions and set this whole charade up for their martial law drill, complete with the overkill of bringing in every military option at their fingertips.

    I have family that lives 1,000 feet from where this supposedly took place.

    You are being played.

    Follow the story line.

    None of it makes any sense but they have all of the locals fearful and emotional.

    There is an agenda behind every single one of the players in the massive propaganda piece.

    Open your eyes and your hearts.

  6. Cindy please enlighten us.

    What’s the agenda and the propaganda?

    They’re coming for our guns?

  7. Hundreds of Urban Warfare Drills on the Streets of America over the last 18 months.

    They are guiding and manipulating the masses.

    They are getting you used to (brainwashing) seeing military presences in your neighborhoods.

    They are playing your emotions and gathering data on how everyone reacts to their show of force and if the “people” swallow their lies willingly.

    They are testing you to see what you know about your Constitutional rights and how far they can push you into believing they are actually there to help you.

    They are parading their police pageantry for shock and awe. They are pushing their DHS centralized army into your neighborhoods and giving you a standing army on US soil.

    (Anyone know what that means?)

    They are stoking racial division.

    They are very busy instilling the fear factor that gives them the power they seek.

    They are propagandizing the people to beg for their protection.

    They want people to beg for gun control.

    They are enticing the sheeple to volunteer for “free” DNA testing.

    They are alienating all neighbors by causing them to mistrust the folks that see through their silly/illegal ploys.

    They are like children seeing just how far they can push you into believing their bag of tricks lies.

    The order-followers are leading the sheeple down the path to their destruction.

    And you have all passed their tests with flying colors.

    The sad part is that they are using your money to pick up the tab to eventually enslave you with their agendas.

  8. Silence in the face of evil is itself evil.

    God will not hold us guiltless.

    Not to speak is to speak. not to act is to act.

    – Dietrich Bonhoeffer

    Cindy: Keep enlightening them.

    Raising awareness is the only chance we have.

    Feels like Germany all over again but worse, doesn’t it?

  9. Those who are awakened cannot be un-awakened.

    The awakening process is a one-way street.

    It’s a process that moves forward and not backward.

    Mathematically speaking there will be more (not less)awakened people on earth tomorrow than yesterday and so on.

  10. Peace and love to you, molly.

    Thank you for speaking up.

    May God bless you and give you favor.

  11. Guess the Mrs. Feels pretty stupid right now.

    She should be anyway.
